Taylor Lautner

Taylor Lautner’s shot to fame began when he took the role of Jacob Black in the mega-successful movie series The Twilight Saga, based on Stephanie Meyer’s novels with the same name. He was part of all five of the franchise’s films, putting him in line with his co-stars, Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart. In 2010, he was ranked second in the Glamour “50 Sexiest Men in 2010” list and fourth in the “Most Surprising Body” list of People magazine. Also in the same year, Lautner was named the highest paid teenage actor in Hollywood.

However, compared to the real-life former couple, Lautner’s career didn’t take off. The 28-year-old star struggled to find a role that would veer him away from his most famous character. He experienced a high degree of being typecast. That’s why he is rarely seen on either the small or big screen. Anyhow, he managed to be a voice actor and model and did other shows, like Cuckoo, Scream Queens, My Wife and Kids, and more.
